Being overweight can reduce their life expectancy and increase the chances of them developing diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and arthritis. So, if your dog or cat is carrying some excess kilos come and talk to us about our weight loss clinics. They are completely free of charge and could drastically improve your pet’s quality of life and lifespan. Everyone at Riverbank Animal Hospital in South Grafton is commited to your pet’s health and long life.
